it might as well be spring

[NYCleveMiami]

hello

[africatwin07]

more please, this is wonderful. I know it's hard to find time with a toddler.

[flyingmashroom]

Sweet voice & background. I love this one. Please up another one.

[GaryNarramore]

Sweet!

[taticarzo]

Envidia

[mozellagi]

Absolutely gorgeous !

[LatinSkinz]

nice tune but the sax was too loud. does he only know one volume and dynamic? next time have him use subtones or get a tenor player instead and this would have been cream.

[djen2103]

J'adore !

[xjag2000]

gorgeous voice.... that's the best version i've ever heard... the guitar is superb, she holds the song together perfectly... the sax is spot on.... this is an instant favorite... great performance... you gave an old classic a new breath of life. *****

[ElCubanoConguero]

@xjag2000 "best version you've ever heard" ? ...sax is spot on"? Are you a retard?

[deedeerm9]

You´re so beautiful!

[Stemsee]

Beauifully performed.  So relaxing. You capture the mood and cuddle it!

[burningbeing]

Your voice is particularly lovely on this recording.

[mostcommonwombat]

it seems like yr old man knew something !! a very different take than usual on that song and beautifully carried off.

[MoGiMaL]

Thank you and your friends for that, very much. It really might as well be spring in my life, now.

[renatabsas]

Very good! Great voice, very well sung; great bossanova guitarist, nice backing of the sax. Keep on!

[edster37]

This is awesome. Please add more songs similar to it=-)!!!

[JazzGit1]

A beautiful song - lovely voice, very good backing, like the guitarist's chords and the sax too but would prefer a tenor.

[TATSUEZ5]

very cozy

I like it

[beubeubossajade]

Ella Fitzgerald is back!! great voice, congratulations Mercedezzz!!

[ojos56]

Vry nice version. Nice and seductive voice...keep it up

[joeninetyjoe]

Sax needs muting a bit - otherwise great.

[JSB1983]

I think a nice tenor sax would complement your low sexy smooth even better!

[juanopiano]

que bacan!

[blowmyowntube]

Beautiful !

[claybartenbear]

i m speechless.... you re extremely talented

[leoray1234]

I really like your singing on this song. It's like a stripped down Getz/Gilberto treatment, with a touch of Billie Holiday or Madeleine Peyroux.

[maurieer]

Very well done. Very nice backup

by the sax and guitar.

[keainansen]

just the right amount of carelessness. it looks like 1:19 is when youre actually enjoying yourself.

[jorjuskhan]

Amazing voice! Fantástico.

[PugetSoundFlyer]

De-Lux!

Diggin' the sax too!

[banjoboy1]

Wonderful...

I guess the sax DOES fit but less notes!

[razorio007]

Great cover...I luv this song.

[allblues68]

What a nice trio. And your voice fits perfectly that distinguished bossanova sound.

[tinnimac]

What a voice! Maravilhosa!

[amirchov]

YOU ARE AMAZING! well done, you have an amzing voice! If I'll ever be in SF (which was my home for 7 years) I'll definitely want to hear you live :)

[bossapeach]

An incredibly special song!

[funnyguise]

great rendition... just need to invest in some music production gear and work on the mix!

[knobstick]

Nice version of a lovely song :o) With regard to the sax part, there's nothing wrong with it, just think Stan Getz! As a sax player I know in an acoustic siuation it can be hard to blend in for backing fills, but Jason does a good job of it here, with some nice flourishes. Love it!

[harbinger320]

guitar and shaker...enough. the sax didn't fit. less is more. love

[MichaelSJK]

The guitar is beautiful.

The vocals are luscious.

The sax is nice too.

Wonderful.

[scorr55]

you're wonderful!

[kzm25697]

Nice one!

[HellJim031]

excellent!!!

[vivajay]

Thanks for this one...Your dad must really be proud of you. Who wrote the charts for the sax part?

[cupcakechagrin]

sha-zam! thanks.

[MERCURY990]

I love you all!

[troubleclef]

very very fine. really engaging.

[heshta]

beautiful =)

[w169benz]

Marylee and Mercedes　ありがとう！

[alexguitare]

very nice. sounded like a wave of the mediteranean sea under the august sky.you just remind me what i miss the more living so far from my sea now...

it was beautifull .

[jolandamusic]

Nice atmosphere, and your voice is as always sooooooooo beautiful!

[tuffy321]

just made my day. thanks.

[bgpiper]

I've never heard anybody bend notes on the sax so well. Great song.

[joadha]

Nice! I'm very impressed by Jason's playing. That solo honestly gave me the chills, and I enjoyed watching you and M-lee react to it.

[rojasrico]

Happy to see you guys having fun. Your sweet voice, the guitar and the sax makes this an enjoyable and superb performance! Thanks for posting this one!

[LocoPCtheoneandonly]

You have a very sensual voice (perfect for jazz/bossa)

[gold5701]

Nice request from mon frere, ton pere and as always...beautiful rendition!

[sunbeams7]

Pity about the Sax, now if he was playing in the next room and keeping to key, it would suit the song. Maybe its just me but anythink that drownds out your sublime voice is "A Bad Thing"

[AllexRichard]

de 0 a 10...nota 11

I think that I go to record its videos in a DVD for gain a money in the pirate market here in Brazil.

hehehe

ta bão mesmo

[omobob]

when is the cd coming out?

[GutoCucci]

Nice, very smooth, That's bossa.

[KrisShred]

Where do you get all the great musicians from? I wonder, were/are you all on music school?

One of your thankful subscribers,

Kris ;)

[bpted]

Great!!

[art2liv4]

Even better with the sax than when you two played it at my request on that sunny afternoon, and it brought tears to my eyes. Yes, great phrasing.

[frugihoyi]

damn i love your voice/adoro sua voz/elsker din stemme

[gabeedeos]

[champra]

Welter

[xmrbojanglesx]

Just amazing :)

[MUNJOLO55]

Your father must be a cool guy. Is Jason your brother?

[PolaScalzo]

mercedezzz, you know all you guys are super cool musically, but, rsrsrsrsrs, i was rigth now talking to Adanzinho on msn and we were commenting about this video: yeh! mercedezzz hair is sooooooooooooooo wonderful now! rsrsrsrrsrsrsrs

[jazzviolao]

mercedezzz, this song really brings out your ability to phrase a melody/lyric... makes me all goose-bumpy.

[fabfour84]

class!!!!

[EricJaffa]

Good saxophone.

But I don't know what "I feel so gay in a melancholy way" means. Maybe you should have replaced that lyric with something more contemporary.

[art2liv4]

I agree with Adam: Larry Hart (gay), would approve. Current usage of that word only increases the meaning(s) of the line. So many good lines in this song that I almost can't believe LH did NOT write 'em; "I am starry eyed and vaguely discontented" a LOT, and "As giddy as a baby on a swing" not nearly enough!

[art2liv4]

A stranger to the "pleasures of melancholy", Eric? That might be healthy...but then so's a good cry every once in awhile. For further exploration of possible meaning(s)of the line, check out the Rodgers & Hart song "Glad to be Unhappy".

[EricJaffa]

I never liked the song, "Glad to be Unhappy."

[pippl2]

"But I feel so straight / I'd go on a het'ro date / But it might as well be ... swing!" or "But I feel so straight / in my foam mattress egg crate / That it might as well be spring." or "But I feel so bi / that my pants don't have a fly / And I might as well wear bling."

[mercedezzz]

OH MAN. Too funny. I love it!!!

[art2liv4]

My sentiments exactly. Johnny August on YouTube sings that line "I feel okay, in a melancholy way" --that's just...okay.

[swingbossa]

Gorgeous. I think Larry Hart would approve. I wish I had been there to join you. Jason, you are a very sensitive player!

[migzo8]

maybe its just me but shes got dis motherly voice in her, the kind of voice datll make the babies fall asleep in a second its too soothing to resist

[art2liv4]

Well, we did sing her show tunes as lullabies.

[art2liv4]

This song is from the musical State Fair, written directly for the screen.

[Lensei]

Your videos are easily among the best of YouTube's, you know. Great stuff.

[sonnenberg]

Beautifully done.  Love the sax. You guys are fantastic.

[rmboemer]

I never heard this song before...Lovely!!!I love your smile!!

[aammirr]

Astrud Gilberto, brought this version to us with the album, 'Getz A Go Go' in the '60s. They should have left some of that album in your homeland. Thankyou for Samba and Bossa Nova.

[ichigoemi]

Lovely as always
